[Catalyst] Basic Tutorial & Version Conversion

[Jonathan Rockway]

Looks like you have spaces before the POD directive (=head1 and =cut).
These need to be right at the beginning of the line:

Compare:

jrockway at WS-DALI ~
$ perl -e '=head1 FOO'

jrockway at WS-DALI ~
$ perl -e ' =head1 FOO'
syntax error at -e line 1, near "="
Execution of -e aborted due to compilation errors.

Regards,
Jonathan Rockway
